Eau Claire (WQOW) –The former Democratic Party chair officially threw his hat into the governor’s race on Wednesday, and already some Wisconsinites are calling for him to drop out.

Women’s March Wisconsin, along with some of its partner organizations including groups outside of the state, believe Flynn should immediately withdraw his candidacy for governor.

They said that’s because of his previous role representing the Archdiocese of Milwaukee against priest sex abuse lawsuits, and his original refusal to answer questions about his past work when confronted about it.

Flynn had a terse response to that request: “Go jump in a lake.”
